Pay at work - new job?

Take the new job, only deal in what you have in your hand. Not what a boss has promised but can't back up. He could be moved department or teams himself. He could well know that too and just be stalling.

The only guarentees you have are with the new job. If the job suits you hand your notice in and force his hand or just leave and take the extra money.
 
Join a well known union and present your case with a union rep.

Dont go for the other job for a 11k raise as you said people earn 30k more.

Present your case saying people will similer job as you are, getting 30k more doing the same thing.

Also prove with documentation that your team is doing well. If you feel that there is no luck, you can always look for another job

Edit: Or give your notice with the company and accept the new job... if they really need you in the company they wil raise your salary

People who join unions in IT earn 17% more than people who dont.

If you enjoy your job stay and see what happens. Managers are scared to put things on paper just in case, eg company might suffer financially by april time.

Hi All

I've been in my current job for just over a year, I started at my company as a Trainee Technical Consultant in a graduate role.

I started in August - I was meant to shadow the techncal consultants for a year before ditching the trainee part from my job title. !

Aren't you still in the first year so technically still a trainee?

Take the new job and pay rise. You pay far too much tax on company cars (well good ones anyway)

Also, try to look on the bright side. You earn plenty already so don't get undone by greed.

Yeah, its on a brochure I got here from that same union. But as you know I dont take their word for it. So I asked a lot of people who are with that union in my work place and they advised that its true.

so you conducted a survey of staff who was willing to tell you what they earn?
did you account for things like time in service, experience, grade, inability to barter for more when it comes to payrise time, performance?

I conducted no survey, however the people I spoke to in my work place (who are reps and work for the company I work for) to take information before I join advised me that joining will help.

Because they are the same people who you take when you discuss any issues with you managers. They talked from experience.

In term of your second point... I have worked for many companys since I was 16 from retail to IT. All of them dont give you a pay raise even if you are an IT Guru if you dont push for it. its very rare.

One comany I worked for a new engineer came in, he was contract, he earned more than the seniors (we found out because the system was breached)
